Ossoff: "She's gonna have to give up her insurance in the middle of chemotherapy while she's fighting breast cancer. What are people supposed to do when they lose health insurance in the middle of a cancer battle? ... this is life or death"

The Trump administration’s unconstitutional attacks on birthright citizenship have fueled months of fear and uncertainty for families like Thomas’. No parent should have to worry about their children losing their rights as Americans.

CNN: That's not what farmers are telling you. One farmer at a town hall told you tariffs drove up prices of fertilizer ALFORD: It was Biden that drove it up C: That's not what the farmer told you A: Well, that's what I'm telling you C: Sir, excuse me. Are you listening to your constituents?

Brooke Rollins: "These deals are real. No one in the history of our country has ever been able to effectuate deals like this. We won't see the effect until next year."

Tune into today's Women's Sports Daily to hear @chelsealeite.bsky.social discuss Sue Bird's UConn jersey retirement and give the latest updates on Trinity Rodman's NWSL contract negotiations.

I can’t believe how much of the Trump era is about solving problems that *don’t* exist while making all the problems that *do* exist, worse. There is no one who thinks the biggest problem with air travel right now is not having an area to do pull-ups.

Leavitt: "As President Trump has been screaming from the rooftops, Republicans need to remain tough and smart, and they need to be more vocal about touting the accomplishments of this administration."

seen on Maria Bartiromo's show

It was another quiet week in the AP Poll, with very few huge drops or climbs. Yet, a few subtle differences show either steady improvement or decline from teams. Poll Ponderings by @chelsealeite.bsky.social: bit.ly/4oOxeRn

Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

PIERS: “You’re not gay?” FUENTES: “No. But women are very difficult to be around.” P: “Should they vote?” F: “No.” PIERS: “They should stay home?” FUENTES: “Yeah.” PIERS: “So you’re just a misogynistic dinosaur. Have you ever had sex?” FUENTES: “No.” PIERS: “Wow. Says the guy who never got laid.”

More people are dying in Gaza this year that Trump is president than last year when Biden was president yet people are regularly in my comments upset at Kamala Harris who lost the election while acting like Gaza is now a vacation destination under Trump. Like MAGA impervious to facts or rationality

Horrific. There is no cease fire. www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

An official complaint has been submitted to FIFA’s Ethics Committee, alleging “repeated breaches” of FIFA’s duty of political neutrality by its president, while also requesting an investigation into the process that saw Donald Trump receive the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize. @adamcrafton.bsky.social

Trump: "NATO calls me daddy."

Trump on Zelenskyy: "He's going to have to start accepting things, when you're losing. He's losing."

Politicians have been relentlessly dehumanizing and vilifying trans people while devastating our freedoms and our communities. We all deserve the freedom to be ourselves — every one of us.

in the meantime i wrote my own little poptimism screed www.dontrocktheinbox.com/poptimism-an...

POLITICO: Can you rule out a ground invasion? TRUMP: Why would I talk to you, an extremely unfriendly publication, Politico, that got $8 million from Obama to keep it afloat? Why would I do that?

Trump: "I want to see people that contribute. I don't want to see Somalia ... the horrible things they're doing to Minnesota, it's incredible."

Will the Grammy for Best Rock Album go to alt-rock survivors like Linkin Park and Deftones, or Haim, Yungblud, and Turnstile?

China was the largest export market for American farmers in 2024. They bought 27 metric tons of soybeans last year. They stopped buying in 2025 when Trump started his trade war. These are simple, obvious, basic facts. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump says he's going to increase tariffs on some goods

Indiana Republicans are under significant pressure to do something they know is wrong: rig the maps and silence voters. Washington Republicans are demanding a "9–0 map." That’s not democracy - that’s cheating. They know it, and they’re ashamed, which is why they’re hesitating.

Private equity’s latest victim? Your grandma’s nursing home.

When our communities are forced to defend our very existence, we're not meant to have time to dream. The hosts of this year's inaugural Black Queer Visionaries Summit, the ACLU of Alabama and The Knights & Orchids Society, made time anyway.

CNN put together a supercut of Trump calling affordability a "Democrat hoax" and "con job"

everyone wants socialism until theyre told its “socialism”

In an exclusive interviews with USA TODAY, NBC’s Maria Taylor talked about what it means to be a 2026 Sports Power Brunch honoree and why women now hold the power in sports. “You can’t be ignored. That’s where I think we’re getting to.” www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

I'll add that as someone who not that long ago spent many frantic nights looking for information on sleep training, feeding, etc etc--by far the most valuable internet resource was reddit, the only place with human advice. Everything else is basically useless at this point.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I sent those deaths threats directly to him in a text message & informed him of what his name calling & words were doing - it was a direct assassination threat on my son. And he was extremely - I won't repeat what he said - but it was extremely unkind. No sympathy. No care"

Marjorie Taylor Greene on why she's leaving Congress: "I've had over 773 death threats that my office reported to Capitol Police ... should I have to become like Charlie Kirk? I think that's too much to ask."

He is more concerned with ballroom, with regard to renovations and being a glorified maitre’d

A podcast was born on Friday! I couldn’t be more excited to launch a new women’s basketball show as part of @theixsportspod.bsky.social alongside @howardmegdal.bsky.social. We will be coming to y’all on Fridays where we’ll examine the most thought provoking stories in women’s basketball.

The president doesn’t have the authority to act as judge, jury, and executioner. Killing civilians is a crime under both domestic and international law. That's why we and our partners are suing the Trump administration to demand they release their legal justifications for these unlawful strikes.

James Talarico: I passed the first-ever cap on insulin in the state of Texas. I fought against this private school voucher scam that’s going to take money out of our public schools. And I fought against these rigged maps that are going to dilute the voting power of Latinos all over Texas.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

SCOTUS will hear arguments today to decide whether or not to strike down party coordination limits. The court's recent history on campaign finance has been marked by a naivety (willful blindness?) to the impact of these decisions. What could go wrong this time? www.huffpost.com/entry/suprem...

POLITICO: When you attack Europe, do you intend to send a message of tough love to our allies, or do you think that many of them are just weak and you don't want to be allies with them? TRUMP: I think they're weak, but I also think they want to be so politically correct.

In my exclusive report for HuffPost, I interview lawmakers suing Trump for his alleged role in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the US Capitol. We discuss their historic lawsuit that has survived every bid Trump has made to throw it off in four years, what it all means and whats coming next:

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

Like QAnon, the election denial movement cannot exist if it ever finds the smoking gun of the 2020 election. Therefore, the evidence must always be just over the horizon — a movement that feeds off itself to live.

For the first time ever, we're headed to Santa Barbara ✨ More info: ussoc.cr/santabarbara

POLITICO: The Pope has called your immigration actions "inhumane." Do you take that seriously? TRUMP: I haven't seen that. I mean, maybe he has. I mean, he also didn't like the wall.

James Talarico: Imagine a Democratic Party that takes on big money and isn't captured by it. Imagine a Democratic Party that delivers for people on housing, healthcare, education, and actually defeats the right-wing extremists who have taken over this country.

"The speaker that Johnson most closely resembles these days is John Boehner, who endured 4 tumultuous years leading the chamber before quitting in disgust. Johnson may be holding on to his job only because Republicans don’t think anyone else could succeed at it either." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social
